ANNUAL CONFERENCE RECAP | 2018 In conjunction with the recommendations, the Alzheimer’s Association released a separate report that examines quality care through the eyes of people living with dementia. A Guide to Quality Care from the Perspectives of People Living with Dementia includes survey data and interviews from individuals living in the early stage of Alzheimer’s or other dementias. It offers insights into how those most affected by the disease view quality care and what they want from care providers and caregivers during their difficult journey. There are seven chapters of the Alzheimer’s Association across New York state, servicing all 62 counties. For more information on the above reports, to learn when or where your team can access an Alzheimer’s Association workshop on the recommendations or for Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia information – please call the 24-hour Helpline at 800-272-3900.
